For langauges that don't have any plural form configured, see my mail:
https://www.mail-archive.com/l10n@global.libreoffice.org/msg11831.html

But that doesn't allow you to check whether existing entries are
correct, for that see below...

and also important equation is (n != 1), so quantity of 0 also gets
plural, like German (0 Sekunden, 1 Sekunde, 2 Sekunden, …)

There's a bug/missing feature in pootle that doesn't export the
Plural-Forms header to files downloaded via web, but the files synced
to disk have it. Meaning: You cannot check in files downloaded from
pootle (only the number of plurals, by the number of msgstr[#] lines),
but you can check it in the translations repo:
